We want to cut it to 120 X 67 1/2. Can it be trimmed with a blade or do you have to use a hot-knife?

William -A sharp scissors or utility knife will work great. No need for a hot-knife.Thanks!

I would imagine 6 or 7 inches, the size of the blade. I found that cutting a larger piece in half (not diameter but length) would be my main concern as the tray you set the piece on while cutting can only hold up to a certain length until it becomes unwieldy, i.e. a long summer sausage. Slow and easy seems to be the best method.

yes, you can cut it, I had to as well. A good pair of scissors help it is a little thick and will pull a bit. I used a large size it worked great.

I'm sure it's up to making the cut, but the "in half" part I have to question. How thick is the piece you need to cut? The larger blade is only 5/8" from the edge to the spine that binds it. If the plastic is thicker than that you might need to go with something larger.

You could cut it to whatever dimensions suit you. Just use a good heavy duty pair of scissors or a straight edge and razor knife. It's only plastic so it's easy.

I just measured for someone else and the actual measure was 8-1/2H x 15-1/16W. I don't see any reason why you could not cut this. It comes with a protective cover which is removed to be applied.

I have never tried to cut one in half, because I like the larger size for our son. In the past I have always purchased the 34"X36". If you have a sewing machine so that you can sew up the cut edge it may work just fine. Hope this helps.

It can be cut however long/ wide you want. It is about an inch wide and can be cut to any length

yes, you can cut it to any size, but make sure you put it in a zip lock bag and seal it well so it won't dry out before you need it again. this product will last for 3-5 years and work just fine if you keep it sealed.

You could cut it down to size. It is made of very heavy rubber and it is about an inch thick, so it will take a little effort to cut. I would recommend you use a heavy duty utility knife with a sharp / new blade in it for a clean cut. This way will most likely still take several passes trying to cut through it because of the thickness. I'm sure you could use other tools to cut it as well.

Hi Tom, I think you may have difficulty getting a clean cut since the blade diameter is 1/2" smaller than the surface you're cutting. You'd either end up hand-trimming the remainder or flipping and cutting twice. You may want to look at a sliding compound miter saw or radial arm saw for pieces bigger than 7"

I don't really know for sure. But I think you can cut it. It's not very thick. Quite flexible. You are able to bend it. However I don't think you can cut it with kitchen or regular scissors. Some tool that cuts harder materials would be able to do it.

it can be cut down and if you have access to a hacksaw that would be best. I used a serrated knife but it required some work. A hardware store might be able to cut it down to size for you in no time at all. Good luck

No, you can't trim it--cutting it at all ruins the integrity of the mat. However, the mat is very flexible; in fact, it comes in a narrow box, rolled up like a tube. You can usually get it to fit well enough inside a baking sheet with sides. It won't tightly conform, but it hasn't been a problem for me.

I have been wondering the same thing I imagine you would have to cut it to the desired length with a grinder or saw that would cut it without damaging it.

You can cut it to whatever size you want. I think they mean maximum size when they say that.

Sure can. Make sure to use a high-quality ultra-fine finish blade when you rip it to width, and go slowly. You don't want to splinter the edges.
